Daryl is working up the nerve to text Carol is a collaborative text fic in The Walking Dead fandom. The fanwork began when tumblr user zedwordjen posted a behind the scenes image of Andrew Lincoln and Norman Reedus on their phones and added the caption: "Daryl is working up the nerve to text Carol, and Rick is giving him some pointers about stuff and thangs"

From there other tumblr users onedayyoujustchange, alil2confident and jazy-momo reblogged the post, adding text and creating a humorous fic of Daryl Dixon learning how to text, so he can send messages to Carol Peletier, and exasperating other members of Team Family. The fanwork also included photos, many from behind the scenes in season 5, and gifs to complement the story. As of February 2018, the post had 1650 notes.
